Bianca & Miguel
Our story
How we got here
We met in 2018 at a friend's despedida in Makati. Miguel offered Bianca the last piece of bibingka; she still says that was the moment.
Then came two years of long distance, Manila and Dubai, four hours apart, with video calls timed around both our shifts. When Miguel came home for good, he brought back a ring he had been hiding in a sock drawer for a year.
He proposed on a rainy Sunday in Tagaytay, over bulalo, with both our families hiding in the next room. Now we would love you to be there for the next part.

When do you need my RSVP?
Please reply at least a month before the wedding so we can give the caterer our final count.
Is there parking?
Yes, at the church and at the reception venue. Ask the marshals at the gate if you are unsure.
Can I take photos during the ceremony?
We would love you to be fully present during Mass. Our photographers will share the pictures with everyone.
